Abstract
Analysis of statewide survey data revealed that 22.5% of individuals with mental retardation who were served by the Oklahoma mental retardation system were receiving antipsychotic medication. Anxiolytic medications were prescribed for 9.3%, and antidepressants were prescribed for 5.9%. Higher levels of medication use were found in institutional settings and Intermediate Care Facility settings.
